Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence procured short-term contract labour in Germany, covering chefs, kitchen staff, cleaners and general labourers. This is a personnel supply service for temporary workers supporting the Ministry’s operational requirements. The work is delivered in Germany under the Ministry’s defence and security procurement arrangements. The requirement is structured as a closed framework, with contractors providing personnel at agreed hourly rates based on the number of hours worked. Monthly requirements are divided between framework contractors according to the number of people needed for each role, although allocations can be adjusted for operational needs, urgency, performance or capability. The relevant service classification is supply services of personnel, including temporary staff (CPV 79620000).

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following an above-threshold open procedure. One lot was awarded on 17 June 2026 to ATA Global Staffing Solutions, BS Brol GmbH, Randstad Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG, Unique Personalservice GmbH and ZAG Zeitarbeit-Gessellschaft GmbH. The award value was EUR 37,799,685; the signed active contract is valued at EUR 37,845,502. The contract was signed on 7 September 2026 and runs from 7 September 2026 to 30 June 2029, with two optional one-year extensions to 30 June 2031. Six valid bids were received. Evaluation used technical quality, with economic and technical selection requirements assessed through the Procurement Specific Questionnaire and the DEFFORM 47 invitation to tender.

This award shows sustained Ministry of Defence demand for a multi-role temporary labour supply service in Germany, delivered through a shared framework rather than a single-provider arrangement. Businesses best placed for a future requirement would be established staffing or workforce providers able to recruit and deploy chefs, kitchen staff, cleaners and general labourers across Germany. They would need the operational capacity to manage monthly volumes, allocate individuals by role, and respond to changing requirements or urgent adjustments. Credibility would also require demonstrable technical capability and the ability to meet economic and technical questionnaire requirements, alongside a robust process for supplying workers against agreed hourly rates. The participation of German and international staffing firms indicates that cross-border recruitment, local delivery and scalable workforce management are relevant strengths.
